Plenty has been written about the GH2 elsewhere, so you probably already know if it's right for you. Assuming you've had your eye on one, this open box deal is hard to beat.
I'd been trying to decide between the various kits or body-only options for the GH2, and was a bit reluctant to get an open box model. However, everything was essentially brand new - the box did appear to have been opened, but everything was still in sealed bags. Of course, I can't say they're all like that, but mine might as well have been new.
The camera is awesome, the lens makes up a good chunk of the resale value, and Samy's did a great job with fast shipping and whatnot. I won't ramble on, since this kit is currently back-ordered, and may never return, but if anyone is on the fence because of the open box condition, I'd say grab one if you get the chance.
